Not illustrated.1820 Excerpt: ... AXMOUTH. I HIS manor, with its parochial church, belonged to the Benedictine abbey of Montburgh, in the diocese of Constance, in Normandy. The priory of Lodres, in Dorsetshire, a cell to Montburgh, was permitted to receive the temporalities of the said church and manor. But 1 see no reason to believe that any priory existed at Axmouth.
